When does Christmas end? Ask this question and you can expect to receive a wide variety of answers! For some it is when they go back to work, for others it is when the turkey and mince pies run out. Perhaps it’s when the decorations come down which can be soon after Boxing Day because many people like to get things back to normal after the festivities. As we know from the song ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’, traditionally Christmas lasts from Christmas Day until Epiphany on the 6th January, when we celebrate the visit of the Wise Men to the baby Jesus, which is why some people do not put the Wise Men in the nativity scene until 6th January. That might seem a strange thing to do when by the 6th January nearly all of us will have packed away the Christmas decorations, but those that follow the traditional teaching of the church will welcome the Wise Men into the nativity scene and not put it away until February 2nd when we celebrate Candlemas. Candlemas is a beautiful, ancient festival: this year our Benefice Candlemas service is on Sunday February 2nd at 4pm in Longham Church. So should it ever come up in a Pub Quiz, one answer to the question ‘When does Christmas end?’ would be February 2nd. The answer I like best is ‘never.’ In Jesus, God came to live amongst us in human form to make it possible for us to have a living relationship with him and to teach us how to live together in peace and take care of each other. At Christmas that work begins as we welcome Jesus into our lives and carries on each and every day of the year, as this wonderful poem by Howard Thurman suggests: The work of Christmas When the song of the angels is stilled, when the star in the sky is gone, when the kings and princes are home, when the shepherds are back with their flocks, the work of Christmas begins: to find the lost, to heal the broken, to feed the hungry, to release the prisoner, to rebuild the nations, to bring peace among the people, to make music in the heart. Readings are taken from the Common Worship Lectionary (CW) - service conducted according to Common Worship (2000) A full list of all the services for the Upper Nar and Launditch group of parishes can be viewed or downloaded from the Litcham website, visit www.litcham.org and click on ‘Services’ link at the top of the page.

  • Great Dunham | Norfolk PEACE of the COUNTRY
    Great Dunham | Norfolk PEACE OF THE COUNTRY Tucked away in the village of Great Dunham, this four-bedroom property built in the mid-90s offers the tranquillity of the Norfolk countryside from the comfort of a modern home. With a large back garden and a setting next to the village green there is all the space you could want, but with easy access to the A47 and the market town of Swaffham. • Executive, Detached family home sitting in an established plot with generous gardens • Rural living with modern comforts and found within 2.5 Miles of Litcham School • Versatile accommodation which includes Entrance Hall, Shower Room, Music Room, Open Plan Kitchen/Family Room • Four Bedrooms (master measuring 21’4 x 21’), Family Bathroom and En-Suite • Utility/Boot Room, Off Road Parking and Double Garage with Front & Rear Gardens • Total Accommodation extends to 2391 sq.ft • Energy Rating D Space and Convenience The moment you pass through the gated entrance and along the gravelled drive and see the front lawn leading up to this family home, there’s the impression of spaciousness. A newbuild on land previously attached to the adjacent property, when the present owners moved into it in December 1996 they installed a new kitchen and carried out landscaping work in the large back garden, and it has been their family home ever since. The feeling of space persists once inside the property. “There’s a very large master bedroom with views over the rear garden. This is a feature but could easily be developed into two separate bedrooms if desired.” And below it, with a recently installed log fire to enjoy, “The back room facing the garden was used mainly for dining in the past but is now primarily enjoyed as a music room.” Add to that the potential for a conservatory, and to perhaps utilise the large roof void, then there is even more room that could be made use of if so required.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

    House of Industry 2014 The House of Industry Gressenhall Norfolk Fig. 1. Façade. Showing former well house and weather vane to the cupola. Inset - detail of doorway CONSERVATION PLAN 1 House of Industry 2014 4.1 Executive Plan An architecturally magnificent building of 1777 with a continuous written record of life in the workhouse from 1777 until 1948. 4.2 Preamble This report is written by Stephen Heywood MA, FSA, an architectural historian and Historic Buildings Officer for Norfolk County Council. The report relies on the hard work of Stephen Pope on the copious records of the workhouse held by the Norfolk Record Office (NRO) and on the lives of its guardians and inmates. His published booklet on the workhouse is full of original research and a valuable resource (Pope). Also consulted are the authoritative account by Kathryn Morrison entitled The Workhouse: A Study of Poor-Law Buildings in England (Morrison) and the Norfolk Historical Atlas (NHA 2005) with its two chapters on Norfolk Workhouses. This account concentrates on the buildings, which have not been looked at in detail before with architectural history as a prime concern. It is intended that the work will inform exhibition designers as well architects involved with repair and enhancement. Also it is hoped that the report will stimulate activities for visitors and volunteers centred on discovering the building. 4.3 Understanding the Heritage 4.3.1 Describe the Heritage 4.3.1.1 Introduction The House of Industry, as it was originally conceived, was built in order to accommodate the poor of the Hundreds of Mitford and Launditch.
